tommarker Posted April 29, 2003 Share Posted April 29, 2003 On a related note... If you're thinking of using "everybody was Kung Fu fiiiightiiiing..." IT'S BEEN DONE! I'm no longer posting here. Adios. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
monkeygirl Posted April 29, 2003 Share Posted April 29, 2003 Yeah we use that too...I do a kata to that song. But it gets such a good reaction from the crowds when they hear it! I guess they just don't really expect to see a humorous twist like that. You can definitely tell the age group of your audience...the 30-somethings nod and laugh. Some of the people who were watching oh-so-seriously will begin to smile and really have fun with it. Sometimes the rest of the demo team will sing along...which can really screw me up! Thankfully they only really do that in practice 1st dan & Asst. Instructor TKD 2000-2003No matter the tune...if you can rock it, rock it hard.

SaiFightsMS Posted April 29, 2003 Share Posted April 29, 2003 Don't use Cotton eye Joe either. I saw a form done to that once and it was just plain silly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kyle-san Posted April 30, 2003 Share Posted April 30, 2003 I've honestly never seen kata done to music outside of certain televised Karate tournaments. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Withers M.A.A. Posted April 30, 2003 Share Posted April 30, 2003 If you're doing an open form then you want something fast. Usually techno or dance music is best. Louie Devito dance CD has some good stuff on it. 2nd Degree black belt in Kenpo Karate and Tae Kwon Do. 1997 NASKA competitor-2nd place Nationally in Blackbelt American Forms. Firearms activist!
